Chapter 287. Is this a match! (1) It seemed determined.
Mom knows about me, but I see right through her as well.
Do not underestimate the sticky bond of a hat.
The gaze I sent when I was leaving.
Undoubtedly, this is a decision that will not be taken lightly.
Maybe I can’t procrastinate any longer.
‘Well… you’ve endured just what you’ve endured so far, right?’
Even if I tried to take him, there was no one who could handle it.
My situation is completely different.
I’m sorry, but that’s true.
Right now, the issue of my marriage and succession is not simply a topic of discussion among the aristocrats in the kingdom, but a matter of deep interest in other countries as well.
In particular, the issue of succession is bound to be more sensitive.
Originally, there is nothing strange about having a successor sooner, which is the custom here.
In this era, the more influential the man, the more important the marriage discussion becomes.
Depending on who I am tied to, the ranking of superiority and inferiority of Ernesia Kingdom and other countries may also be shaken.
That’s why I deliberately… only pretended to be cautious.
He pretended to be decent, but in reality he didn’t keep away from women like a monk.
….If I have to clarify, I’ve been doing everything I could.
I didn’t become the main character of rumors for nothing.
However, no matter how free I was, I never had a decisive accident.
I was quite careful.
Until now, when important marriage talks came in, I somehow avoided it with an excuse, but that is also the limit.
‘Because recently, there have been too many people besides my mom asking about it.’
These days, the first thing everyone asks when they see my face is this.
‘So, is there someone you have a crush on, Arell-nim? If not…
….Recently, on a real holiday, I’ve been reminded of what it feels like to ask, ‘When are you getting married?’
It’s been a while since I’ve felt like this.
Because in order to be in this situation, the world has to be at least somewhat peaceful.
Who will get married in a world where wars and disasters do not end?
It’s been a long time since I’ve been through a rough world.
But, to be honest, it’s really embarrassing.
because.
‘What can I do? Didn’t you think about it?’
In the meantime, I’ve seen a lot of confrontation.
However, there is no more meaning than that, as long as it is formally arranged so that it does not cause unnecessary confusion.
I’m sorry to the young ladies who are desperately trying to look good to me, but I’m out at the point where I’m just aiming for my reputation.
Are you not a romantic enough to talk about true love?
But if you don’t have a heart, you don’t like it.
Thinking about it made my mouth feel dry, so I thought about it while munching on the chocolate snack topped with whipped cream.
Well, well! gulp!
Now come, ‘I’m married to my ex.
I plan to dedicate my life to the manor.’
Even if I say that, no one will believe me.
I don’t believe in the country either.
Rumors about my personal life these days are great.
It’s the kind of gossip that good kids can’t tell.
I knew at least that there were rumors going around that would make the neat young ladies cover their mouths and blush when they heard it.
Of course you know.
But what?
I can’t really deny that.
Of course, not everything is true, but if you listen to it occasionally, there are rumors that really prick your conscience.
….Honestly, more than half were stabbed.
Looking back, I wondered if I was too faithful to my desires.
No, before that, you guys aren’t in a position to say anything to others, are you?
Everyone has a private life that you can’t talk about in front of others, right?
Everyone has at least one obscene beast or a black flame dragon in their heart, right?
Just being honest about life and desires.
I just live with the mindset of enjoying everything.
Even so, I don’t think it’s a bit too much for rumors to spread that I have a future beyond my father’s.
No, not to that extent?
It doesn’t mean that my nature is messy.
The first life, the second, and the third, I lived a careful and modest life.
Didn’t I just say that human self-control and conscience wear out the longer they live?
After the 10th time, I decided not to think about it and live my life.
Thanks to that, I am now living a free life without others knowing.
Yes.
Now you can enjoy enough and live!
Of course, I will omit the detailed explanation about it.
The problem is, after all, a formal marriage conversation.
Personal privacy and public marriage are separate issues.
married in the first place?
If you want to do it, you have to do it three or four times.
Is there anything wrong with that?
In the first place, it’s the same when you look at your father.
The oldest brother alone has five wives.
I already have four little kids.
Even the most frugal and ordinary Leonil hyung-nim has three wives.
What a great family.
Well… In this era, there is nothing particularly special about the men of the royal family.
It is a society in which no one thinks otherwise of having three concubines, six concubines, sixty or six hundred concubines.
I have to persevere as well.
The problem is that the concubine or woman relationship and my current problem are separate.
Headquarters, of course.
He needs a woman who will become a pillar to support his family in the future.
In other words, who becomes the royal family becomes a big question.
‘This is difficult…
I don’t care who I put forward, but considering the eyes of others, it’s not a simple thing.
It’s a sensitive issue.
Especially in the royal family, the issue of chastity of a person with a strong influence like me is quite serious.
‘It’s not going to end just by picking and choosing just anyone.’
It’s not such a simple problem that you can pick and choose by exclaiming, ‘You’ll be my wife!’
Annoyingly, this is where the enormous understanding around them gets entangled.
In some cases, there is a possibility that a small dispute may have to be endured.
Above all, choosing someone will make the other person unhappy.
That’s why I wasn’t active on purpose.
I tried to postpone it for as long as possible.
But now that’s the limit.
‘I can’t. Shall we postpone this one time…
and the rest go as planned?’
It is not that there is no person who has not decided whether to call it a vaguely remembered method or a candidate.
The problem is his reaction…
….how is it?
Let’s go think about it then.
“Haa, no matter how many times you live, marriage is a really troublesome problem, isn’t it?”
I, who had been struggling until now, grumbled and lamented for the first time.
“Who created the institution of alternative marriage, huh? I hope the person who made it goes to hell.”
“Um… lord? Did I get married last month? Even if you said that to me…
A woman in a uniform who came out with a chocolate product she had just ordered in front of me looked very troubled.
I’m only saying this now, but I’m sneaking out of the castle and hiding in a chocolate shop located in the city.
A match was held today.
At first, I wanted to see if I could face it, but I soon changed my mind.
let’s bounce
And it popped up in the morning.
After that, I went to play here and there and came here.
Of course, ordinary citizens don’t know if I’m stuck here right now.
Who in the world would imagine that the lord of their city would come to a store like this?
But the manager who works here knows me.
Because I’ve seen my face more than once because of work.
“Ahahaha. sorry? okay? Um, looking at your face, do you and your husband get along well? Sesame spills every day?”
“oh? Not quite like that. He’s still busy too. Even now, I go to the southern city for business.”
The store manager, who got married last month, smiles shyly.
Apparently, I often come out to kill time, so I remember a little about the staff’s congratulations and condolences, so I vaguely remember them.
I’m sure you heard that she married a merchant who opened a shop in the city?
I didn’t care who it was, so I couldn’t remember more.
First of all, since he is a clerk at my store, I think he sent me at least a congratulatory gift.
It wasn’t that I came to the store on a particularly fictitious day and took care of it because I was bothered by it.
First of all, welfare is taken care of. The lord himself.
This is the quality of Arel’s work welfare.
So, anyone can get married with peace of mind.
We proudly put forward this slogan.
….Although it’s ironic that I’m grumbling about marriage.
“Hey lord? By the way, I heard the lord just said, are you getting married now?”
“Um, maybe?”
At least sooner or later? But why are you asking that?
As I am puzzled, I exchange strange glances between the manager and some of the clerks who know my identity.
Some of those clerks clenched their fists and said, ‘Yes!’ I am delighted, and the others show a little pity.
Why are they like that?
“… Did you guys make any bets?”
“That is not it. We talked for a while.”
“Are you going to look at this and be honest?”
Seeing him avoiding his eyes, I think he did it.
I have no intention of saying anything about it.
Basically, my motto is ‘Everyone’s Neighborhood Kind Lord’.
If it’s overly rude, I’ll say something, but well, don’t just pass this on.
But… I’m a bit curious as to why they bet so much on not doing it.
“Ah, but it’s not like I don’t understand the lord’s worries.”
The store manager said that as if he was deliberately trying to divert his words.
“Everyone thinks about marriage two or three times in their lifetime.”
“…Isn’t it usually just once?”
Do you have something to think about twice?
“And most of the other guests are worried because they can’t do it. In other words, it is worrying about being full.”
“Hey, don’t talk too much about having no dreams or hopes.”
This woman hits people with sneaky facts.
You recently got married and have awakened to the law of beating people with facts.
After all, married women are strong.
Several young ladies in the store shrug their shoulders as if they heard that.
The store manager’s remarks unintentionally caused wide-area damage within the store.
In what sense is this not auditory terrorism?
I’m not worried because I can’t do it.
It’s a little extravagant to think about not doing it when you can.
“Anyway, wouldn’t it be better not to worry too much?”
“Ahahahaha… is that so? Um, but how come the number of young women who come to the store has increased recently? Is it because of your mood?”
I decided to change the topic slightly because I thought that many women would continue to suffer damage if I continued to talk about marriage.
It’s not just something I’ve said, but I suddenly noticed that the proportion of women among customers has increased recently.
When I occasionally go out to play in the city, I stop by the store, so naturally my eyes were drawn to that point.
First of all, it’s fashionable, so I’m concerned about it.
Even such trivial information will be of great help to your business skills.
Well, it’s because I’m half bored.
“Are these new chocolates popular with women?”
“actually…. There are things like that, but those customers aren’t really looking for chocolate, are they?”
When I asked, the store manager gave a somewhat embarrassed smile and said that.
“Isn’t chocolate your goal?”
This is a chocolate shop? What does that mean?
Did you sell other products without my knowledge?
But I’ve never seen such a report.
No, it’s not that there’s no possibility that I spilled it because I was skipping.
Anyway, I don’t remember.
“Come to think of it, all the other guests seem to be looking for something different? army.”
“Actually, a new clerk came into the store a while ago.”
“A new clerk?”
